[squid-users] Select parent without ICP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Wondering if this will work...  I have a laptop that moves with me between
multiple networks.  I'm wondering it I might setup squid to know about the
available proxy servers on each of them and "figure out" which one it
should be using.  I need to do this without using ICP as most of them are
actually WinISA proxys (shudder).

I'm running a stock Fedora Core 3 distribution with updates.  I've
adjusted squid.conf to add the following entries:

cache_peer 192.168.1.1 parent 8080 0 no-query
cache_peer 10.0.0.1 parent 8080 0 no-query
cache_peer 192.168.200.1 parent 8080 0 no-query login=foo:bar

prefer_direct off

When I'm on the 192.168.1.x network, all is well and it never seems to
even try connecting to the other two peers.  When I'm on one of the other
two, it seems to be stuck trying to connect to the first one.

I've tried adding connect-timeout=5 to each cache_peer entry with no change.

Is this just not possible?  Is there a better approach?
